Download The At The Races App Novices' Handicap Chase

Off the mark over timber at Taunton (16.5f) in April and looked in need of experience when fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Fakenham (16.3f, good, 10/3) on debut over fences 16 days ago. Should be more to come in this sphere.

Still looking for first success under Rules but posted creditable fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (20f, good to firm) when last seen in July and could be a different proposition on first start/yard debut over the larger obstacles (has experience in points).

Tricky customer but won 3 times over hurdles last year and posted good second of 12 in handicap chase at Exeter (17.5f, good to soft) on debut over fences last month. Likely contender.

Irish point winner who capitalised on his falling mark over hurdles at this course (20.4f, heavy) in May. However, weak finishes have become the norm of late and he tries a shorter trip now.
